This was never meant to work like that. On the find page, conditional attributes are not evaluated for following reason: Assume you want to search for Orgus = ZGN. Currently you simply type ZGN in the Orgus field and you're done. With drop down lists, you first would have to select Locatie = extern, then Sessies = Risc/Bus/Sms Pro, and only then you could select Orgus = ZGN. That would require three steps. Technically it's however possible to implement what you want, but I would wait until more people request this. |
Hi Stefan,
tnx for the quick reply/feedback, i'm just a newbee in eLog, but working with it is a nice challenge and gives much pleasure for me and my colleagues. Tnx again and have a nice weekend! |
Search all logbooks as default, posted by An Thai on Mon Mar 5 14:41:20 2007

Hello all,
do you know how I can default set the option "Search all logbooks" in the Find page selected/checked?
Best regards,

Dear Stefan,
what i mean is that you maybe modify the setup file for Windows (elog-latest.exe) so that everybody can make change of -[options] while install Elog. I am not a Windows expert, but I think that a lot of software can be set or configurated at the first install time (For Example: Path destination, features avaible, ...)
Do you know if it is possible? |

I don't know how to set-up the scheduled tasks from the installation script. Furthermore, having a application constantly running is somehow unusual, and it will confuse normal people. To my knowledge, not many people use the -x option under Windows. These people how really need it are clever enough (like you) to set-up the batch file manually. |

I added the option
Search all logbooks = 2
which lets you do that. It's in the SVN version and will be contained in the next release. |
Global "MOptions", posted by Fergus Lynch on Mon Mar 26 11:45:07 2007

Hi,
We have ELOG configured for virtually every conceivable use in our IT Operation dept and it is fantastically useful and easy to use. One result of this - naturally! - is that we have quiet a few logbooks.
Many of these logbooks share the same attributes - especially Moptions for equipment lists - which is fine but requires manually copying and pasting Moption lists into multiple logbooks to keep everything synchronized.
Would it be an option to have Global "MOptions" - perhaps configured in the 'global options' file - which can be called up and referenced in all logbooks?
Just an idea -
Cheers

Sure, that's possible alreay with the current version. Just put your MOptions statement under [global] and it will be used in all logbooks. If a specific logbook uses different MOptions, put the a second MOptions list under that logbook's section and it will overwrite the global setting. |

Sure, that's possible already with the current version. Just put your MOptions statement under [global] and it will be used in all logbooks. If a specific logbook uses different MOptions, put the a second MOptions list under that logbook's section and it will overwrite the global setting. |
Perfect! Works a treat (I promise to read the manual next time!)
Cheers
